blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, in tijuana

Friday odds 'n ends:

• So the game will stay in Dallas. Rusty seats? Not enough powder rooms? Too few seats? To be honest, as long as you get to sit on the 50-yard-line with Aunt Becky and Uncle Steve, who cares? :)
• Skip sends a link to the Funniest Site Ever. Be sure to check out the "Chicken Fares," the "where's my luggage?" section, and the "new products" catalog. It's almost funny enough to make me overlook the fact that it's an elaborate commercial for Alaska Airways.
• This is the best piece on the immigration issue I've seen.
• Jon Meacham's speech for the Lilley inaugural at Baylor is a must-read. It's exactly what Baylor needed to hear, and exactly what she should be about in the years to come.
• Oh, George Allen. You know, when he was a brand-spankin'-new senator, I was a Senate intern. We went to brief his people one day and it was abundantely clear that they didn't have a clue about foreign policy, 'cause they'd just do whatever they were told to do. People can learn. People can change. But for the life of me I never managed to figure out why he wore cowboy boots either.
• Pitchfork: love it or leave it. All I have to say is that 0.0 was perfectly just for Liz Phair's '03 album.
